Deploy data job to collect traffic data about VDK from Github API
What is the feature request? What problem does it solve? The Github Insights menu is limited in the data that it presents - for example, only the last month's worth of contributions is considered when listing how many commits each user has made. This issue has been partially dealt with in #523, however the Grimoirelab suite doesn't collect any of the data shown in the Traffic section of the Insights dashboard (https://github.com/chaoss/grimoirelab-perceval/issues/572). We'd still like to collect this data, which is available through the Github API (https://docs.github.com/en/rest/reference/repos#traffic).
Suggested solution A data job should be created and deployed, which queries the Github API about the necessary data on a weekly basis and stores it in some database.
